There is also this survey, after trailer release.
As we can see, from that Survey 33% don’t like the Art Style.
Its very clear there are quite many people who don’t like it.
We had for 2 years basically zero info’s and now we don’t even see them make official surveys.
The question is, why is a game created without to check if people are actually like what they see?
And I see their entire approach like this cartoon.
If you are creating a game, shouldn’t you em, like interact and communicate with community?
even Paid review sides, who were paid to say nice stuff about AoE4, do speak openly AoE4 does have a cartoon look. Like Rock Paper Shotgun and gamestar
